Histological and Immunofluorescence Analysis of Adipose and Liver Tissue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Liver, epididymal adipose, and interscapular brown adipose tissues were fixed in 4% (v/v) paraformaldehyde before being embedded in paraffin. The tissue was sectioned into 4 to 10 µm sections and stained with hematoxylin-eosin (H&E). Oil-Red-O staining was performed to observe liver intracellular lipid accumulation. An optical microscope was used to observe the sections.
IF staining starts with antigen repair. Subsequently, the colon sections were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C, then covered with the corresponding secondary antibody and kept at room temperature for 50 min without light. Cell nuclei were counterstained with DAPI staining (Wuhan, China, Servicebio) and analyzed under a fluorescence microscope (Japan, Nikon).

EDU Assay for Cell Proliferation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell proliferations were determined by an EdU assay. ADSCs were divided into 6 groups as above. After 48 h of culture, the EdU detection was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions (C0078S, beyotime). Before the cells were incubated in a shaker for 10 min, 100 μL 0.5% TritonX-100 was added into each well and then rinsed with PBS. The cells were incubated with Edu solution for 30 min, then washed, and dried subsequently. DAPI staining (Servicebio, Wuhan, China) was used to estimate the total cell number. The slides were sealed and photographed under a fluorescence microscope. Three random fields of each sample were observed and photographed under a fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Japan). The number of positive cells was quantified by the software of ImageJ.

Immunofluorescence Analysis of Prostate Cancer Cell Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Prostate cancer cells were placed on round slides and fixed with paraformaldehyde (4%). 0.3% Triton X-100 was applied to permeabilize the cell membrane. Bovine serum albumin (3%) was added to block nonspecific binding prior to the staining procedure. The cells were incubated overnight with antibodies against AR (ab74272, Abcam), HMGB1 (66525-1-Ig, Proteintech), STAT3 (ab32500, Abcam) and gankyrin (sc-101498, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) at 4°C in a humidified chamber. The slides were washed in PBS three times and then incubated for 1 hour using fluorescent dye-conjugated secondary antibodies (4412S and 4409S, 1:1000, CST) at room temperature in a light-proof moisture chamber. Nuclei were visualized by DAPI staining (0.1 μg/ml, Servicebio) for 10 min. The slides were then examined and captured using a fluorescence microscope.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
